MariaDB 10.0 is the current development version of MariaDB. It is an evolution
of the MariaDB 5.5 series with several entirely new
features not found anywhere else and with backported and
reimplemented features from MySQL 5.6.

MariaDB 10.0.8 is an RC (Release Candidate)
release. This is the ninth 10.0-based release, and the first RC release.
All features planned for inclusion in the stable (GA) MariaDB 10.0 series are
included in this release.

The CREATE OR REPLACE TABLE statement was added. It is used internally for replication (MDEV-5491), but it is also can be used by clients as any other SQL statement.

This enables replication to be able to continue even if the slave crashes (due to, for example, a bug or power outage) in the middle of a CREATE TABLE, CREATE ... SELECT, or DROP TABLE. When the slave comes back up it can replay the statement without any data loss if needed.

As part of this change, the slave-ddl-exec-mode variable was added. It specifies how CREATE TABLE and DROP TABLE statements are replicated.

For a complete list of changes made in MariaDB 10.0.8, with links to detailed
information on each push, see the changelog.
